“1.0 UNIT PRICES

1.0.1 Measurements

The quantity of concrete to be paid for will be the volume of concrete in cubic yards including thickened edges, where required, placed in the completed and accepted pavement. Concrete will be measured in place in the completed and accepted pavement only within the neat line dimensions shown in the plan and cross section. No deductions will be made for rounded or beveled edges or the space occupied by pavement reinforcement, dowel bars, tie bars, or electrical conduits, nor for any void, or other structure extending into or through the pavement slab, measuring 3 cubic feet or less in volume. No other allowance for concrete will be made unless placed in specified locations in accordance with the approved contract modification. The quantity of other materials specified herein, and used in the construction of the work covered by this section, will not be measured for payment, but will be considered a subsidiary obligation, covered under the price per cubic yard for concrete.

Joint sealing materials are covered in Section 32 13 73 COMPRESSION JOINT SEALS FOR

CONCRETE PAVEMENTS.

1.0.2 Payments

1.0.2.1 Lump Sum

The quantity of concrete will be paid for and included in the lump-sum contract price. If less than 100 percent payment is due based on the pay factors stipulated below, a unit price of $557 per cubic yard will be used for purposes of calculating the payment reduction.

1.0.3 Payment of Lots

When a lot of material fails to meet the specification requirements, that lot will be accepted at a reduced price or be removed and replaced. The lowest computed percent payment determined for any pavement characteristic discussed below (for example, thickness, grade, and surface smoothness) becomes the actual percent payment for that lot. The actual percent payment will be applied to the unit price and the measured quantity of concrete in the lot to determine actual payment.

Use results of strength tests to control concreting operations. Strength will be evaluated, but will not be considered for payment adjustment. Remove and replace any pavement not meeting the required 'Concrete Strength for Final Acceptance' at no additional cost to the Government.

1.0.4 Payment Adjustment for Smoothness

1.0.4.1 Straightedge Testing

Record location and deviation from straightedge for all measurements. When more than 5.0 and less than or equal to 10.0 percent of all measurements made within a lot exceed the tolerance specified in paragraph SURFACE SMOOTHNESS, after any reduction of high spots or removal and replacement, the computed percent payment based on surface smoothness will be 95 percent. When more than

10.0 percent and less than or equal to 15.0 percent of all measurements exceed the tolerance, the computed percent payment will be 90 percent. When more than 15.0 and less than or equal to 20.0 percent of all measurements exceed the tolerance, the computed percent payment will be 75 percent.

Remove and replace the lot when more than 20.0 percent of the measurements exceed the tolerance, at no additional cost to the Government.

1.0.4.2 Profilograph Testing

Record location and data from all profilograph measurements. When the Profile Index of a 0.1 mile segment of a lot exceeds the tolerance specified in paragraph SURFACE SMOOTHNESS by 1.0 inch per mile but less than 2.0 inches per mile, after any reduction of high spots or removal and replacement, the computed percent payment based on surface smoothness will be 95 percent. When the Profile Index exceeds the tolerance by 2.0 inches per mile but less than 3.0 inches per mile, the computed percent payment will be 90 percent. When the Profile Index exceeds the tolerance by 3.0 inches per mile but less than 4.0 inches per mile, the computed percent payment will be 75 percent.

Remove and replace the lot when the Profile Index exceeds the tolerance by 4.0 inches per mile or more, at no additional cost to the Government.

1.0.5 Payment Adjustment for Plan Grade

When more than 5.0 and less than or equal to 10.0 percent of all measurements made within a lot are outside the specified tolerance, the computed percent payment for that lot will be 95 percent. When more than 10.0 percent but less than 50 percent are outside the specified tolerances, the computed percent payment for the lot will be 75 percent. Remove and replace the deficient area where the deviation from grade exceeds the specified tolerances by 50 percent or more, at no additional cost to the Government.

1.0.6 Payment Adjustment for Thickness

Using the Average Thickness of the lot, determine the computed percent payment for thickness by entering the following table:

Computed Percent Payment for Thickness

Deficiency in Thickness Determined by cores inches

Pavements Equal To or Greater Than 8 inches Thick

Pavements Less Than 8 inches Thick

0.00 to 0.24 100 100

0.25 to 0.49 75 65

0.50 to 0.74 50 0

Computed Percent Payment for Thickness

Deficiency in Thickness Determined by cores inches

Pavements Equal To or Greater Than 8 inches Thick

Pavements Less Than 8 inches Thick

0.00 to 0.24 100 100

0.75 or greater 0 0

Where 0 percent payment is indicated, remove the entire lot and replace at no additional cost to the Government. Where either of the two cores from a sublot show a thickness deficiency of 0.75 inch or greater, 0.50 inch for pavements 8 inches or less in thickness, drill two more cores in the sublot and compute the average thickness of the four cores. If this average shows a thickness deficiency of 0.75 inch or more, 0.50 inch for pavements 8 inches or less in thickness remove the entire sublot.”

- Section 32 13 14.13 – Concrete Paving For Airfield and Other Heavy Duty Pavements – revise paragraph 2.2.1 as follows: “Provide Portland cement conforming to ASTM C150/C150M, Type II, low alkali including false set requirements.”

- Section 32 12 15.13 – Hot-Mix Asphalt Airfield Paving – Add the following to the beginning of the section as follows:

“1.0 FULL PAYMENT

1.0.1 Method of Measurement

Measurement of the quantity of hot-mix asphalt, per ton placed and accepted, shall be made for the purposes of assessing the pay factors stipulated below.

1.0.2 Basis of Payment

The measured quantity of hot-mixed asphalt will be paid for and included in the lump sum contract price. If less than 100 percent payment is due based on the pay factors stipulated in paragraph QUALITY ASSURANCE, a unit price per ton will be used for purposes of calculating the payment reduction.

1.0.3 PERCENT PAYMENT

When a lot of material fails to meet the specification requirements for 100 percent pay as outlined in the following paragraphs, that lot shall be removed and replaced, or accepted at a reduced price which will be computed by multiplying the unit price by the lot's pay factor. The lot pay factor is determined by taking the lowest computed pay factor based on either laboratory air voids, in-place density, grade or smoothness (each discussed below). Pay factors based on different criteria (i.e., laboratory air voids and in-place density) of the same lot will not be multiplied together to get a lower lot pay factor. At the end of the project, an average of all lot pay factors will be calculated. If this average lot pay factor exceeds 95.0 percent and no individual lot has a pay factor less than 75.1 percent, then the percent payment for the entire project will be 100 percent of the unit bid price. If the average lot pay factor is less than 95.0 percent, then each lot will be paid for at the unit price multiplied by the lot's pay factor. For any lots which are less than 2000 short tons, a weighted lot pay factor will be used to calculate the average lot pay factor.

1.0.3.1 Mat and Joint Densities

The average in-place mat and joint densities are expressed as a percentage of the average theoretical maximum density (TMD) for the lot. The average TMD for each lot will be determined as the average TMD of the two random samples per lot. The average in-place mat density and joint density for a lot are determined and compared with Table 1 to calculate a single pay factor per lot based on in-place density, as described below. First, a pay factor for both mat density and joint density are determined from Table 1. The area associated with the joint is then determined and will be considered to be 10 feet wide times the length of completed longitudinal construction joint in the lot. This area will not exceed the total lot size. The length of joint to be considered will be that length where a new lane has been placed against an adjacent lane of hot-mix asphalt pavement, either an adjacent freshly paved lane or one paved at any time previously. The area associated with the joint is expressed as a percentage of the total lot area. A weighted pay factor for the joint is determined based on this percentage (see example below). The pay factor for mat density and the weighted pay factor for joint density is compared and the lowest selected. This selected pay factor is the pay factor based on density for the lot. When the TMD on both sides of a longitudinal joint is different, the average of these two TMD will be used as the TMD needed to calculate the percent joint density. Rejected lots shall be removed and replaced. Rejected areas adjacent to longitudinal joints shall be removed 4 inches into the cold (existing) lane. All density results for a lot will be completed and reported within 24 hours after the construction of that lot.

92.0 or 97.0 75.0 90.5 below 92.0, above 97.0 0.0 (reject) Below 90.5

1.0.3.2 Pay Factor Based on In-place Density

An example of the computation of a pay factor (in I-P units only) based on in-place density, is as follows: Assume the following test results for field density made on the lot: (1) Average mat density = 93.2 percent (of lab TMD). (2) Average joint density = 91.5 percent (of lab TMD). (3) Total area of lot = 30,000 square feet. (4) Length of completed longitudinal construction joint = 2,000 feet.

a. Step 1: Determine pay factor based on mat density and on joint density, using Table 1:

Mat density of 93.2 percent = 98.3 pay factor.

Joint density of 91.5 percent = 97.3 pay factor.

b. Step 2: Determine ratio of joint area (length of longitudinal joint x 10 feet) to mat area (total paved area in the lot): Multiply the length of completed longitudinal construction joint by the specified 10 feet width and divide by the mat area (total paved area in the lot).

(2,000 feet x 10 feet)/30000 square feet = 0.6667 ratio of joint area to mat area (ratio).

c. Step 3: Weighted pay factor (wpf) for joint is determined as indicated below:

wpf = joint pay factor + (100 - joint pay factor) (1 - ratio) wpf =97.3 + (100-97.3) (1-.6667) = 98.2 percent

d. Step 4: Compare weighted pay factor for joint density to pay factor for mat density and select the smaller:

Pay factor for mat density: 98.3 percent. Weighted pay factor for joint density: 98.2 percent Select the smaller of the two values as pay factor based on density: 98.2 percent

1.0.3.3 Payment Adjustment for Smoothness (Final Wearing Surface Only) Profilograph Testing. Record the location and data from all profilograph measurements. When the Profile Index of a lot exceeds the tolerance specified in paragraph SMOOTHNESS REQUIREMENTS by 1.0 inch per mile, but less than 2.0 inches per mile, after any reduction of high spots or removal and replacement, the computed pay factor for that lot based on surface smoothness will be 95 percent. When the Profile Index exceeds the tolerance by 2.0 inches per mile, but less than 3.0 inches per mile, the computed pay factor will be 90 percent. When the Profile Index exceeds the tolerance by 3.0 inches per mile, but less than 4.0 inches per mile, the computed pay factor will be 75 percent. Remove and replact the lot when the Profile Index exceeds the tolerance by 4.0 inches per mile or more, at no additional cost to the Government.

Regardless of the above, correct any small individual area with surface deviation which exceeds the tolerance given above by more than 5.0 inches per mile or more, by grinding to meet the specification requirements above or remove and replace at no additional cost to the Government.

1.0.3.4 Laboratory Air Voids and Theoretical Maximum Density

Laboratory air voids will be calculated in accordance with ASTM D3203/D3203M by determining the density of each lab compacted specimen using the laboratory-prepared, thoroughly dry method in ASTM D2726/D2726M and determining the theoretical maximum density (TMD) of two of the sublots using ASTM D2041/D2041M. Laboratory air void calculations for each lot will use the average theoretical maximum density values obtained for the lot. The mean absolute deviation of the four laboratory air void contents (one from each sublot) from the JMF air void content will be evaluated and a pay factor determined from Table 2. All laboratory air void tests will be completed and reported within 24 hours after completion of construction of each lot. The TMD is also used for computation of compaction, as required in paragraph MAT AND JOINT DENSITIES above.

1.0.3.5 Mean Absolute Deviation

An example of the computation of mean absolute deviation for laboratory air voids is as follows:

Assume that the laboratory air voids are determined from 4 random samples of a lot (where 3 specimens were compacted from each sample). The average laboratory air voids for each sublot sample are determined to be 3.5, 3.0, 4.0, and 3.7. Assume that the target air voids from the JMF is 4.0. The mean absolute deviation is then:

Mean Absolute Deviation = (|3.5 - 4.0| + |3.0 - 4.0| + |4.0 - 4.0| + |3.7 - 4.0|)/4 = (0.5 + 1.0 + 0.0 + 0.3)/4 = (1.8)/4 = 0.45 The mean absolute deviation for laboratory air voids is determined to be 0.45. It can be seen from Table 2 that the lot's pay factor based on laboratory air voids, is 100 percent.

1.01 - 1.20 90 Above 1.20 reject (0)

1.0.3.6 Pay Adjustment Based on Grade

Within 5 working days after completion of a particular lot incorporating the final wearing course, test the final wearing surface of the pavement for conformance with specified plan grade requirements. Perform all testing in the presence of the Governmentr. Provide a final wearing surface of pavement conforming to the elevations and cross sections shown and not vary more than 0.03 foot for runways or 0.05 foot for taxiways and aprons from the plan grade established and approved at site of work. Match finished surfaces at juncture with other pavements with finished surfaces of abutting pavements. Deviation from the plan elevation will not be permitted in areas of pavements where closer conformance with planned elevation is required for the proper functioning of drainage and other appurtenant structures involved. The grade will be determined by running lines of levels at intervals of 25 feet, or less, longitudinally and transversely, to determine the elevation of the completed pavement surface. Maintain detailed notes of the results of the testing and provide a copy to the Government immediately after each day's testing. When more than 5 percent of all measurements made within a lot are outside the 0.03 or 0.05 foot tolerance, the pay factor based on grade for that lot will be 95 percent.
